HarperStudio Unveils Its Acquisitions, Also a Blog
You may have seen the reports earlier this morning about the books HarperStudio has acquired for publication early next year, including the unpublished Mark Twain stories, the book on partnership by Michael Eisner, the John Lithgow memoir, and the collaboration between 48 Laws of Power author Robert Greene and 50 Cent. (If you can track it down, Nick Paumgarten‘s New Yorker profile of Greene may offer some insights into that last project.) But you should really take a look at all of The 26th Story, the imprint’s official blog—which features posts written by all four members of the HarperStudio team, even though publisher Bob Miller speculates in an early post that the site’s core audience might just be “a small group of people who also work in book publishing.”
He’s probably wrong about that—the debate over whether the big, generalist publishers can really achieve their own brand identity is far from resolved, but what we do know is that there’s an awful lot of readers who are eager to hear from publishers who have something serious to say about their vocation, something besides “look what we’re shipping this week.” And so far this blog’s holding up on that front.
